Hourglass Butterfly Box and Card

Hi All,

Got back from my weekend in San Francisco only to find that a couple of posts I had planed while I was away didn't actually go 'live' (I guess it helps if you hit the 'Publish' button instead of 'Save'!!!)  So now I am playing a little bit of catch up.

Today's project is an hourglass box by Kelleigh over at The Digichick.  It is such a pretty little box, and when I found this...

a Martha Stewart pad for only $3.00 at Marshalls - I knew just what to do with it.

As with all Kelleigh's files they are super easy to put together, with the addition of some ribbon and a little embellishment they look like you've spent ages over them.

The beautiful butterfly you see adorning this box I cannot take credit for, it was made by my friend Pam over at Papillon Digital Designs, it really is beautiful - thank you so much Pam.  Here is a closer look.

I also wanted to added a card to go along with this box and was thinking along the lines of wedding, but I feel that it would suit Mother's Day or a female birthday equally well.

This image is from my favourite place to get digital images Saturated Canary (Krista's images are adorable, you should check them out.)  I coloured the image with ProMarkers, added some stickles, silver gems and a doily - here's a closer look at the details.

Thanks for taking a look at my projects today.
